SPBC's Top Player for 2013 Named Tuesday, November 5th , 2013 Jhong-shun Xú said he felt great coming into this year and expected a productive campaign. But did the Mexico City Aztecas first baseman ever anticipate being named the winner of the 2013 Semi-Pro Baseball Circuit Most Valuable Player Award? "Not a chance, I'm 35 years old, not exactly a spring chicken out there," he said. "I always felt I had a season like this in me, but still a surprise when it happens." On the year, Jhong-shun Xú posted a .322 batting average and a .353 on-base percentage. In 87 games he piled up 117 hits, 29 doubles, 3 triples, 10 home runs, 47 RBIs and 45 runs scored. He received 14 first place votes out of a possible 18. Ricky Alcala of the Saskatoon Moose finished second in voting, while Gouki Miyagi of the Vacaville Steelheads finished third with 4 first place votes.
